In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys, guest host Sam Harter, and VERY SPECIAL return guest, comedian Laura Crawford, go back to that old chestnut: "WHO'D WIN IN A FIGHT?".

Will Abraham Lincoln's height and farm strength be able to triumph over Richard Nixon's tricky tactics behind the ref's back? Can we get JFK to quit plowing celebs and East German spies long enough to actually fight anyone? Only one way to find out!

Andrew talks about his experiences and the guys go through a bunch of options.
And finally, we end with the answer to Thomas Takes The Bar Exam #103 on the Takings Clause! As always, remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!
